Libra Group was founded in 2003 by George Logothetis. The company’s roots trace back to 1976 with the founding of Lomar Shipping by Michael Logothetis. In 1994, at age 19, his son George Logothetis became Lomar Shipping’s CEO with a fleet of three vessels. Over the next 10 years, Lomar was grown from three vessels to a more modern, 55-vessel fleet.

Building on insights from the shipping business, Libra Group was founded in 2003 to create a diversified portfolio of businesses across geographies. Lomar Shipping executives were sent to global economic hubs to identify business opportunities around the world. From there, the organization expanded into key sectors, creating diverse businesses unified with key values. This evolution from a single-sector group to a global group reflects Libra Group’s ethos of adaptability, opportunity, and enduring growth.

Today, George Logothetis serves as the Executive Chairman, Nicholas Logothetis as the Vice Chairman, Adamantios Tomazos as Senior Executive Board Member, and Manos Kouligkas as the CEO.
